How to change the password of a user account having admin power in Windows XP?
to change de password of de administrator account 1st u hav 2 log in as de administrator...den u can access de files....u cannot access or change de password thro de guest account...hope u r not doin anything illegal...!!!!
Reply:Hi,





As you said you're using a "Guest" account, you can't access the files or documents stored by the "Administrator". A "Guest" account has limited activities. In this case all you can do is nothing or someway know the "Administrator" password to gain full access.





If you find any problem,

Reply:If u want to see the files and change them u dont need an admin account, there are many ways of doing so like resetting the password or booting thru another O.S. I ll explain both the ways


First way:


http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/c...


download that file andburn it into a cd. then boot thru that a reset the password by following the instructions.





Second way:


Only to view files


Either download knoppix live cd or go for http://www.ubcd4win.com/ and download the live cd builder and make custom windows live cd. Thru that u can boot and then view and edit files without any password recovery process.





If u still have problems just write to me and i think i can solve the problem.


best of Luck


Note: Dont use these tools for illegal use
Reply:Log in to your system as an administrator and go to control panel...then user accounts---%26gt;and select the account for which u want to change the password..u need to give in the old password and then the new password...


done....cheers!!!!!
